Disneyland

So we decided to take a family trip to The "Happiest Place on Earth" Disneyland!!! My Best Friend Shonna and her 2 year old daughter Maddi joined us. We were also able to get my Mom, Dad and sister Sami to join us. We booked and awesome hotel. The hotel had 2 queen beds, bunk beds, and a pull out couch. Plus 2 FULL bathrooms. My family and Shonna drove down Friday March 13. We arrived at about 9pm.

Diesel was all set in his Cars gear! He looked so cute I had to get a picture before he went to bed.

Saturday morning my mom, dad, and Sami drove down. They got there at about 8:30am. We got on our shuttle and headed to the park. My Mom being a SO CAL resident got us all 2fer tickets. We were able to get into 1 park 1 day and the other park a 2nd day for the price of 1 ticket.


Our 1st ride was Space Mountain. Jer and I hadn't been on it since it was re-done. We even had Taylor go on it.





Next we hit the Submarine ride. They re-did it with finding Nemo. The line was an hour and the kids got restless. We tried our best to keep them busy. Luckily they did pretty good

It was well worth the wait. We all loved it.

After that we were all hungry and headed over to get some food. Diesel fall asleep.

Once we ate lunch we headed over to Pirates of the Caribbean. Everyone was able to go on this. The wait wasn't too bad only about 20 mins.
The girls were so happy to see their Auntie Sami. They always wanted to ride with her.

I sat with my mom and Dad

Diesel of course rode with his daddy! He was a little scared at times but did great!

Next Everyone else went on Indiana Jones. My mom, Shonna, and I took Maddi and Diesel on the Tarzan Tree House

Diesel started to get restless after we went on Thunder Mountain so we got him some Cheetos. He just looked so cute!

The new thing is to get the kids to say "CHEESE" when they take pictures. They are adorable!

Next we went on Matterhorn. I rode with Diesel.

Taylor rode With Sam, Diesel even went with Daddy.

After Matterhorn we decided to head to Toon Town and let the little ones play.

My Mom with her kids and Grandbabies!

Some Fun in Minnie's House

Heading to Mickey's House

So we got to Mickey's house and there was a line all the way through the house. We weren't sure why it was taking so long. About 30 minutes into the house we realized that We were going to meet Mickey Mouse. We had no choice but to wait. There wasn't an exit and we didn't want to work out way back out with a group of 10.

Shonna and I bought matching T-shirts to wear to Disneyland. We looked so cute!

After Toon Town we went on It's a Small World. They re-did this one too. They added Disney characters to the different places. It was really cool. All the kids really liked this one.

Then we had to go on Autotopia. We got our Fast Passes and then had dinner. Rylee rode with me and she drove the car. It was so funny. We were laughing the whole time. Let's just say that she isn't a very good driver!

Diesel rode with Jer and Tay with Sami

We had planned on heading to Fairytale Land with all the kids rides like Dumbo and Peter Pan. We didn't realize that the fireworks show was going on and they had closed that part down. We watched the fireworks instead. Diesel didn't like them at all!

After the fireworks we headed back to the Castle to do those rides but it was going to be closed until at least 10:30. We decided to skip it and take some pictures instead.

When everyone else went on Indiana Jones Shonna my Mom and I stayed with the kids. Then they had to close the ride because some lady lost her purse. The line was so long when they all got off so we decided to wait. My mom didn't want to go so Sami took her ticket and we went on it. My mom and dad took all the kids on the Jungle Cruise while they waited. I guess it was really cool late at night.

That was the last ride we went on for Disneyland. We all headed back to the hotel, got the kids to bed and hit the hay. My mom, dad and Sam stayed in our hotel that night. It was fun!
